FAQ

What are the Contrast Boardshorts made of?

They are 100% organic cotton.

Is organic cotton safe to wear?

Organic cotton is grown without synthetic pesticides, a soft, breathable everyday plant fiber. Toxome rates every fiber on what it does to the body of the person wearing it, and publishes the reasoning rather than a badge. The score covers the fiber, not the dyes and finishes a mill adds later.

How does Toxome score clothing?

Toxome reads each garment's fiber composition and scores it on what that fiber does to your body, not on a brand's sustainability marketing. A higher score means a cleaner fiber. Composition is taken from what the brand publishes, so the score reflects the label rather than our opinion of it.
